I love this strategy! I might add a small family sorority to my 75 to get more action at the top of the tank. I love this!! I currently have three in a 10 that I “rescued” when I went to a big box pet store to buy some bloodworms. I really shouldn’t go into those places 🤦🏻‍♀️. I’m going to move them to a Fluval Edge 15 that I recently picked up.

I have a sorority and they’re doing amazing! It honestly makes me sad that females get passed up just because people want the finnage of males. The females I have rival the males I currently have as far as coloration. But I absolutely love your sorority! It’s definitely goal status for me!

I wouldn't feel comfortable putting more than one female in something smaller than a 40 or 50 gallon. I don't usually recommend sororities, but hearing about a group in such a large tank just sounds beautiful. Glad they're all happy together!

The sisterhood of Bettas

It’s fun to see you so excited! I’m happy for you!!

The Tank looks amazing The Bettas are Beautiful. Great news your going to be breeding Bettas can't wait for them to be on the website

I had a sorority for a couple years. As the fish passed, I did not replace them because I decided to use the tank for something else... But I really missed having one, so we are now setting up a 75 gallon corner for an even bigger one, and I have about 20 girls coming! My sorority had all different types, sizes, and colors of girls. The rare newcomer who wanted to fight would get a little beat up, hide for anywhere up to two weeks, and then just join everyone else like nothing had happened. But I had a pair of giant females who were always by each other's side. They even slept in the same catappa leaf roll. (I soak the big ones for a day, roll them up, secure with a rubber band, and link that through a heater clip near the surface for little betta sleeping bags.) One eventually got a HUGE tumor. It was so bad... At first, I thought she may actually be eggbound, but too much time passed. At that time, we were painting the house and had moved the girls into individual containers to move their tank to another room, too. I decided if she ever became lethargic or refused food, I'd put her down, but she was happy and gobbling food one day; gone the next. After losing her friend, the other giant tried to condition another female to be friends, but it was never quite the same as that original friendship. Anyway, I've heard of sorority situations that got out of control, but mine was successful. It was a community with several species and lots of floaters.

We do sorority also. I think the major TRICK is to have a 4' tank. 75 gallons. I don't think I would try it in any smaller tank. We started in a 20 but within weeks moved them into a 75. They need place to swim and a place to call their own. 25-30 in a 4' tank seems to be the correct population. A few small feedings per day, frozen and flakes and bi weekly water changes. Our tank has lots of tall silk plants and structures. No live plants. Some caves as well. All in a bare bottom tank. Gotten away from substrate years ago and don't miss it at all. Betta females are a very simple yet very interesting fish to keep. It is wonderful to just watch them constantly explore their tank. We have kept fish now for over 50 years, fresh and saltwater, and these girls are my favorite of them all. Not nearly as much work as our Discus tank!

I have 4 sisters in a 20g and they all get along just fine, and even get along with some corys ❤️

Fantastic video and my favorite subject. Well, maybe, except for ponds, lol. I'm so excited to keep up with these girls and I'm glad you gave advice on how many to keep depending on tank size. I'm currently working on a 20 gallon betta sorority and will keep 5. I have 2 already in separate tanks. Anxious to start this new adventure. xoxTX

You are the sweetest person! I know I’ve never met you but your light shines through the screen!! I love bettas as well they are the coolest fish!

I have a planted 29gallon with four female bettas. Two sets of Two sisters. Each from separate spawns. I’m going to add two more more sisters from different spawn. I love this tank so much and it’s very interactive. As of now they are all very friendly. They are housed with 14 galaxy rasboras, 5 marble Cory cats, 2 Kuhli loaches and 1 bushy nose pleco.

Please refrain from adding too many, it'll cause them to be next to eachother constantly which could stress them out 😖 if you have backup tanks for them you can try it, I just don't recommend if you already have 4 😭

What a great idea to do sisters! They're beautiful. How about a live cam of their tank on your site? On second thought, that might encourage others with no experience and no idea how you're doing it.

I set up one! I did however put each beta from different stores in there on vase from dollar tree! This way they were quarantined too! I sat them all on a table side by side and moved them around to see each other for 3 weeks. I put them together and have had zero problems! It’s been 2 months! They do have plenty of room but they seem to hang out together!

First of all, this was exciting because it was about bettas. What makes it even better is where you got the bettas from and they are sisters!! My original girls that I started with were all sisters and they did wonderfully! When people ask me about sororities they ask me how I had success, one of the things I recommend is if they can do it, try to get them all as young sisters! Taylor has some of the most beautiful fish and what an honor to set up this beautiful tank with her beautiful babies in it.😍💞 And they couldn't have gone to anybody any "betta".. I'm so excited for you!! Oh, I would be so excited to have 21 fish at the same time... Especially these girls they are gorgeous 😁🤗🤸🤸🤸💞 this was a really cool video and I appreciate you sharing it with me.. it makes me want to set up another tank and tell her to save another round for me someday.

They look beautiful! Will they get any bigger? Taylor mentioned in a video to give a sick betta algae wafers. I rescued a betta from my 22 year old daughter's very cold bedroom 3 months ago. I've revived him Twice in 3 months. He loves his 5 gallon tank with a bubble filter and a heater set at 80 degrees. And since he came out of his last "coma', he's loving a small piece of algae wafer every day. Plus, A Girl Talks Fish talked about using aquarium salt. It was Level 3 that turned things around for this very resilient betta!

I love how they're all the same color, they're perfect!

Beautiful bettas!! You inspired my sorority!

Y’all are really about this fish keeping life so much water and beautiful tanks to look at !

💕🥰 I will definitely buy one if you start breeding them!

I have a 55 gal tank with a 30 beta sorority in it. It is similar in feel and care to my African chicken tank. Seems like the more you have the less aggression. The all went in at the same time and have a fairly open tank arrangement like the africans. It is a very pretty tank.

Yes I just found a breeder in Burke, VA. This father breeds just for fun, and charges $5 a fish. The money helps feed his family, and hungry children in his country. I have two from Petsmart, and 6 from the breeder. They are all getting along, but the energy is much different. I had a Nitrite spike just before the bettas arrived. I have finally figured out its the water in my area, but I had to add them, because there was no where else. I don't get paid until the 15th, but the last 48 hours have been good. I love all of this videos, and you really inspired me to build the soriety. Thank you

Looks so good, Lisa!! Good luck! ❤️🥰

Great video. That tank is definitely cool.

I have a beautiful female shes so purple and blue and big she as pretty as any male betta I have seen. She is in a tank filled with shrimp, tetras, a glass fish (kinda a creepy fish my son picked it out) and guppies. I tried cutting back her food from 3 times a day to 2 times a day and I found her swimming around with a shrimp in her mouth. Little stinker. So I feed small amounts 3 times a day but aside from that she isn’t bothered by the other fish. She loves swimming up the filter current and than letting her take her on a ride. It started with the guppies and she joined in. The current is only on one side of the tank so she has a peaceful place as well.

I picked up two females from my local shop but unfortunately they did not get along. Surprisingly the small one was picking on the larger one. So now they are in their own five gallon tanks and doing well.

Nice tips....i'll make my version of this sorority tank.

I had a heavily planted lo-tech 29G with betta sorority a few years ago. Loved it! One of the six had her own little spot she claimed, the others never did.

I love this tank looks fantastic

Good day, my own observation about betta fish water condition was not to weekly water change, if I do so, they get sick (water shocked) and die after a few days . My male betta in a cup, I only change 5%-10% once a week. I just removed their waste everyday or every other day (if there's any) and return back the excess water. My male betta in a 1 gal tank, I do water change (20-25%) once a month or every two months... and still doing fine...

Wow, so beautiful

I was thinking of putting three battaettes in fifteen gallon. Think there would still be room for some small corys? Maybe four? I was thinking pandas. House of tropicals is great. What a selection. Thanks for the videos.
